Dog Walking Peterson Park

About: I’ve had pets my entire life. My family had a two high energy dogs growing up and even from a young age I would enjoy caring for the two of them. After they passed, I volunteered at my local humane society, working mainly with dogs. When I was about 17, I convinced my family to adopt a puppy. I taught him basic commands, potty training, and basic leash skills. I currently own a cat who is equal parts sweetheart and menace. Being tasked with raising a kitten turned out to have a massive learning curve, but he is absolutely spoiled with playtime, toys, and treats. He is currently being leash trained and we’re working on anxiety associated with his crate. I am extremely flexible since I am in a hybrid program for classes, so all of my didactic/classroom work is fully online and accessible from anywhere and anytime! I do work Friday mornings from 8am-12pm and may not be available some weekends since I work every third weekend minimum. Otherwise, I’m completely flexible and will always try to work with you! I care for all pets with love and respect. The main goal is to establish trust with new pets by allowing them to approach me with interest on their own terms, even if it takes a while. Providing pets with playtime and attention is a priority after their daily basic needs are met. I believe in gentle correction or making an activity more interesting with treats or a favorite toy when a pet is acting up or disinterested.

“Angel is the best! He Is very responsible and cares a lot for our puppy! He loves to play and spend time with him like he’s his own dog. His compassion and education about animals Will help him become a great VET in the future. We are lucky to have Angel as our repeat sister!”

About: I've lived and worked with animals most of my life. Sitting for disabled pets, dogs, turtles, cats and birds. My goal is to keep them happy so you can explore the world. When I'm with an animal, they get love and attention while I work from the couch on a hybrid schedule. (3 days in office a week) They are fed, watered, played and bathroom'd when needed. I generally will come to their house so their life is less disturbed and they can stay with the routine the family has established. Written instructions for care will be followed.

About: I have over 3 years of experience caring for cats, including my own and friends’ pets. I also have experience caring for dogs.

I’ll follow your care instructions carefully and make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’ll also provide regular updates and photos for your peace of mind. I have a flexible schedule and can provide consistent care throughout the day. Whether your pet needs feeding, playtime, walks, or companionship, I’ll make sure they receive the attention and care they deserve. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities.

I’ll make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for, and I’ll send regular updates and photos during every visit.

About: I’ve always been a huge animal lover! I’ve been taking care of my aunt’s three Bernedoodles for a few years now, so I’m very used to having my hands full with multiple dogs! I’ve also watched my family’s Corgi and Mini Aussie, as well as two Great Danes, so I have plenty of experience with dogs of all different sizes and personalities. I have a German Shepherd of my own who’s always been full of energy but is now getting into her senior years, along with my sweet 1 year kitty! I’ve grown up around animals and genuinely love spending time with them. I know how important it is to have someone you trust looking after your pets, and I’d love to give yours the same love and attention I give my own! I’m currently a student at ASU and also work part time, but I have a pretty flexible schedule! I’m used to balancing my day around taking care of my own pets, so making time for walks, feeding, playtime, and plenty of attention is already part of my routine. I’m happy to work with pet parents to find times that work for both of us! I know how much our pets mean to us, so I always make sure to treat every animal like they’re my own! When visiting your home, I’ll stick to whatever routine your pet is used to, whether that’s feeding, walks, potty breaks, or just some extra playtime and attention. On walks, I’m always mindful of our surroundings and make sure your pup is safe and comfortable. I’ll also make sure they have fresh water, everything is cleaned up, and all doors and gates are secure before I leave. I’m more than happy to send pictures and updates throughout my visits too! I want you to feel completely comfortable knowing your pets are happy, safe, and getting lots of love while you’re away!

About: Family, friends and acquaintances of theirs have relied on me as a source of care that they consider a piece of their family. If you’re that kinda person , I might just the right fit. I like to understand an animals personality, and created a trusted bond. I am willing to do whatever silly thing your animal requires to feel safe and loved. I am very flexible and am open to discussing your needs for safety/care and the animals need as well. Please don’t hesitate to contact me. I often am available most Holidays. Pet sitting is not just something to bring in an extra income but something that brings real joy, happiness, and fulfillment to my life. While having an animal for me, every single day isn’t realistic unfortunately ,I find that the ability to do this periodically throughout the year and to be around animals is very rewarding . This also gives me the ability to focus entirely on your animal and the comfort they need when family is away. I did security for nine years and have a level one fingerprint clearance card. I will treat your home with respect and when watching animals and my own home, I do not watch multiple animals from different households to ensure that no issues were to ever arise in a negative altercation. I do have a preference of housesitting at clients homes due to just the comfortability of the animals environment not changing. They tend to already have a little bit of anxiety with the owner, leaving and changing their environment can sometimes for some animals heighten that anxiety.

As an active, independent, and hyper-detail-oriented person, you can trust that your space & pets will be in exceptionally safe hands. As a proud pet parent to my two girl cats, El and Billie, I know firsthand how much peace of mind matters when you're away.

As I wrap up my final quarter of medical school, I approach my schedule the same way I approach everything: as a dedicated planner who plans well and ahead. Because I carefully map out my rotations and coordinate my timeline in advance, I can seamlessly align my commitments with your pet’s needs. You can count on the same organization, foresight, and high attention to detail in my calendar management as I bring to my medical training; ensuring your pet’s routine, feeding schedule, and playtime receive my undivided, reliable care! I treat every home with deep respect, keeping everything secure, tidy, and well-maintained so you can truly relax and enjoy your time away with total peace of mind!

About: I have taken care of my 100% dependent grandfather and I have had many dogs of different breeds which I have taken care of with a lot of love and responsibility 🥰 Currently I don't work and study online so I'm flexible to all kinds of schedules. I will be 100% available whenever you need my help 🥰 I prefer to take care of them in their own house since it is more comfortable for pets to be in their territory and quiet, but also my house is a pleasant and safe environment for their pets.

About: I have hands-on experience caring for dogs and cats, including feeding, walks, potty breaks, playtime, and keeping pets comfortable in their own environment.

I’m comfortable caring for both dogs and cats, following specific care instructions, and making sure pets receive plenty of attention while their owners are away. My goal is to give every pet the same care, love, and attention I would want someone to give my own animals. I’m happy to provide photo updates and keep owners informed during drop-in visits! I am currently unemployed and just moved to the area. I would love to find a consistent schedule, or find a family who feels comfortable using me with all of their needs. I have two dogs and two cats of my own. With that being said, I have them crate trained and we have a fenced in backyard. They are good with other animals.

About: My experience caring for family pets began at 16 years old. A noteworthy pet sitting involved caring for a household with one female dog, her six newly born puppies, two adolescent dogs, and a senior dog for a week and a half. I believe this highs shows my ability to handle diverse pet household needs. Also, I have gained some experience in pet care for cats since October 2023. I work 12-hour shifts from 6 a.m. to 6 p.m. on Sundays, Mondays, Tuesdays, and every other Wednesday. I am available every Thursday, Friday, and Saturday, along with every other Wednesday. I can inform you if I have that week's Wednesday off or not when you send your request. As a pet owner of a dog and a cat, I understand that each pet requires a unique approach to their daily habits and needs. I will stand by your instructions for the care of your pet(s), with the consideration I expect when others care for my own pets when I'm away. I hold no judgment over their care needs.

I live in an apartment but love taking the dogs out on long walks every few hours. I have a retired service dog who will keep your dog company.

About: I have always loved being around dogs and have plenty of hands on experience caring for them. I regularly pet sit for dogs in my building and take them on walks, making sure they get plenty of exercise, attention, and love. I also have a golden retriever puppy of my own, so I’m very comfortable with the energy, patience, and responsibility that comes with taking care of a dog. I’m reliable, attentive, and genuinely enjoy spending time with dogs and making sure they feel safe, happy, and comfortable while their owners are away. Im currently an online student and so im usually pretty free which provides me with a lot of time to hang out with the dogs! I live in a nice apartment and my building has a pet play area that’s always empty and a place for them to run around as well as a lot of trails for long walks!

About: Hi! I’m Zoe, a dog lover in Ahwatukee near South Mountain. I’ve grown up with dogs my whole life, especially larger, high energy breeds, and currently have a 1.5 year old Husky/German Shepherd mix named Atlas. He’s friendly, social, and loves dogs of all breeds and sizes! Atlas and I stay active with at least a mile long walk every morning and evening, plus frequent trips to the dog park. I’m very comfortable with energetic, stubborn, and larger dogs and love giving pups plenty of exercise, attention, and playtime. I work from home Monday, Thursday, and Friday and have weekends off, so I have a pretty open and flexible schedule. I’m available for walks, drop ins, daycare, and weekend sitting. I’d love to take care of your pup and give them all the love, attention, and exercise they deserve while you’re away! I work from home Monday, Thursday, and Friday and have weekends off, which gives me a flexible schedule for pet care. I’m available for walks, drop ins, daycare, and weekend sitting.

I follow each owner’s instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walking routines, medication needs, and house rules.

In my home, pets will receive plenty of attention, affection, and a calm place to relax. Atlas is friendly and social, but I always want to make sure introductions are handled carefully and that every dog is comfortable. If I’m caring for your pet in your home, I’ll respect your space and maintain your pet’s usual routine as closely as possible.

“I reached out last minute and Dezi responded quickly. Communication was excellent from start to finish and I really appreciated the photo updates during the walk. It gave me peace of mind knowing my pet was in good hands.”
